Seawork Fish Processors (Pty) Ltd is a company based in Walvis Bay, Namibia, specialising in the catching, value-adding, and marketing of frozen seafood products for the international market. Through smart partnerships and strategic alliances, we have a global distribution and partner network.
Our main product lines are derived from the catching and processing of Hake ( Merluccius capensis / Merluccius paradoxus). We also process all our bycatch, which is mostly comprised of Kingklip ( Genypterus capensis ) and Monkfish ( Lophius vomerinus ). All our processing takes place in two modern, well equipped and EU certified facilities.
We employ a highly-skilled workforce that enables us to offer only the highest quality hand filleted final products. Minimising waste and optimising product yield is core to our process. Therefore, hand filleting lines were our natural choice. Flexibility in our packaging options allows us to offer a variety of industry-related packaging options and can accommodate almost any packaging requirements.
Our fleet of five wet fish trawlers, supply our processing facilities with a continuous source of premium quality, wild-caught seafood products. All this enables us to guarantee our customers a steady supply of the highest quality product, tailored to their individual requirements.
We continuously seek to improve our quality management systems to keep up to date with international quality standards, legislation, and regulations
